    Re: How to use OLEDB in VB6.0

    I wish I had my VB installed but the system just crashed, here is some code to start you off.

    Place this code in a module

    Code:
    Option Explicit
    
    Public Cnn As ADODB.Connection
    Public Rs As ADODB.Recordset
    Public MyDbPath As String
    
    
    Public Sub ConnectToDatabase()
    Set Cn = New ADODB.Connection
    
    Cnn.Provider = "Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0;Jet OLEDB"
    CnnArt.Open (MyDbPath)
    Set Rs = New ADODB.Recordset
    Rs.Open "Login", Cnn, adOpenDynamic, adLockOptimistic, adCmdTable
    'this should open a table named Login in the database
    End Sub
    Then you need to access a form, say a login to add more users, etc. To access the database table, use this code write this code in the form;

    Code:
    Form Load()
    ConnectToDatabase
    
    WITH rsLogin                             ' This is the login table
                 '
                  .AddNew                                       'Adds new data to the table
                  !Password = txtPassword.Text    ' Password field in table
                  !UserName = txtUserName.Text
                  .Update
    End WITH
    End Sub
    If it doesn't work then I missed a step somewhere in the form. A coleague will help, am sure.
